Older programs not compatible with Windows 7‏ or above

Not all, but some older programs may not work in Windows 7 or Windows 8 or above. Desktop applications and software written for Windows Vista should work for Windows 7 as well but some older programs might  have compatibility issues. Before installing the software/programs, we need to check whether it is compatible with the Windows version you are using.  You might encounter an error while running programs which are not compatible for Windows 7 or others:

 Now we talk about what could be reason behind old programs not working in Windows 7. Programs designed for older versions of windows like Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows Vista are tested for compatibility with these version and are not tested for future release of Windows operating systems like Windows 7 or so, we are not sure if they are going to work for newer release of Windows. However, when a newer versions of Operating system is released, this has been taken care most of the time so that older versions should work, depending on the class (or type) of device, many hardware devices need a new Windows 7 specific driver to function properly on Microsoft's latest operating system. It also depends on your operating system architecture, for an example if you are using Windows 7 64-bit and trying to install a program which is built for 32-bit motherboard, it will error out. Also, you get some options to run your software with different compatibility modes:

Let's talk about how can try to make incompatible software work in Windows 7.  User following steps to run your program in Windows 7.

Right click on the program(exe file/setup file), click on properties, click on compatibility tab and follow the instructions below, once you make change any of these properties, try running the software:
Compatibility mode: Runs the program using settings from a previous version of Windows. Try this setting if you know the program is designed for Windows 7 version of Windows.
Reduced color mode: Uses a limited set of colors in the program. Some older programs are designed to use fewer colors.
Run in 640 × 480 screen resolution: Try this setting if the graphics for the program appear jagged or are rendered improperly.
Disable display scaling on high DPI settings: Turns off automatic resizing of programs if large font sizes are used. Try this setting if large-scale fonts are interfering with the appearance of the program.
Run this program as an administrator: Some programs require administrator privileges to run properly. If you aren't signed in to your Windows 7 PC as an administrator, this option is unavailable.
Change settings for all users: Lets you choose settings that will apply to all users on your Windows 7.

You can also try running program compatibility troubleshooter in Windows 7 as below:
Run the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter: Open the Program Compatibility troubleshooter by clicking the Start button in Windows 7, and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click Troubleshooting. Under Programs, click Run programs made for previous versions of Windows.

Workaround: Blue screen error Windows 7

Description:
It is also called "STOP Error" or "Blue screen of death"(BSOD), windows will display a message "A problem has been detected and windows has been shutdown to prevent damage to your computer".
The error screen may show different error codes as per the issue. Windows automatically creates a “minidump” file that contains information about the crash and saves it to your disk. You can view information about these minidumps to help identify the cause of the blue screen. The error is not much helpful in investigating the issue.

Cause:
This error could cause due to following reasons:
1. Due to any hardware,software or device driver issue
2. Any recent hardware/software changes made to the system
3. Critical OS data has become corrupted
4. Windows is not able to recover from it without losing data
5. System may running out of memory

Troubleshooting:
There are following solutions could be followed in order to troubleshoot the problem:
Use System Restore: If your system recently started blue-screening, use System Restore to roll its system software back to a previous state. If this works, you’ll know that it’s likely a software problem.
Scan for Malware: This could also be due to any system critical file affected by Malware. Scan your computer for malware to ensure if any malicious software causing it to crash.
Install Updated Drivers: An incorrectly installed driver can lead to crashes. Download the latest drivers for your computer’s hardware from your computer manufacturer’s website and install them — this may fix BSODs caused by driver problems.
Boot Into Safe Mode: If your computer is blue-screening every time you turn it on, try booting into safe mode. In safe mode, Windows loads only the essential drivers. If a driver you’ve installed is causing Windows to blue screen, it shouldn’t do so in safe mode. You can work on fixing the problem from safe mode. Also, check if the system is not running out of memory or the system has enough space in its windows drive.
Run DiskCheck: Run chkdsk by going to the Safe Mode and typing "chkdsk" in command prompt in order to determine any disk errors if there is any.
Check for Hardware Problems: Blue screens can be caused by faulty hardware in your computer. Try testing your computer’s memory for errors and checking its temperature to ensure that it isn’t overheating. Also, you can check your system hardware in order to make sure if everything is plugged in correctly like hard disk, RAM etc and there are no hardware connectivity issues. Replace any faulty hardware if detected.
Reinstall Windows: Reinstalling Windows is the last option. It will remove/uninstall all your existing system software and other device drivers.

Warnings: Backup your data to an external drive in Safe Mode before restoring last known good configuration or running repair diagnostics. Do not edit the registry or the start-up programs without technical assistance or how-to.

SYMPTOMS

While attempting to install Java, a message box apears with the following error:

IKernel.exe - Application error

The Instruction at "0x771c741a" referenced memory at
"0x0..." (any number).

The memory could not be read.

Click on OK to terminate the program

CAUSE

The IKernel.exe application error may be due to one of the following reasons:

1. The InstallShield engine (iKernel.exe) or one of its component files in \Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine folder may be damaged, corrupted, or read-only.
2. The InstallShield engine (iKernel.exe) or one of its component files in \Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine folder was left on the system by an older version of the InstallShield installer (and is now incompatible with the version that Java Installer uses).
3. You are trying to install Java on a Windows XP machine with service pack 1 and Windows XP Hotfix Q328310 applied.

---

SOLUTION

Following are the possible resolutions for this error. Choose the appropriate method for your computer.

• Generic Solutions
1. Rename or remove the old InstallShield engine folder
2. Update InstallShield Engine

Generic Solution

Solution #1: Rename or remove the old InstallShield engine folder iKernel.exe is the InstallShield program file.

Java setup program copies InstallShield engine files to the hard disk during Java installation. These files are copied to the folder "C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield". Assuming your system drive is C:. This InstallShield folder is used as a temporary folder by Java setup program. After you install the program, the contents of this folder are no longer needed or used.

The iKernel.exe application error may occur if the InstallShield engine (iKernel.exe) or one of its component files in "\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine" folder is damaged, corrupt, or has read-only permission. This error may also occur if the InstallShield engine (iKernel.exe) or one of its component files in folder "\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine" was left on the system by an older version of the InstallShield program. This is incompatible with the current version of InstallShield used by Java installer. The user should either rename or delete this folder and rerun the setup. The InstallShield installer will then replace or install the correct engine files if they are not found on the computer. To rename the InstallShield engine folder perform the following steps:

1. Launch Windows Explorer by right-clicking the Start menu on the system status bar and select Explorer. You can also invoke Windows Explorer by pressing Windows Key + E on your keyboard.
2. Browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine
3. Right-click the highlighted engine folder and select Delete.
4. Click Yes in the Confirm Folder Delete message box.

UPDATE Ikernel
Download the latest version of the iKernel engine by clicking the link below and save it to your Desktop. iKernel Update

Internet Explorer-Runtime error

This document explains a workaround if you receive 'A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug?' when attempting to load a webpage in Internet Explorer.

Note: This workaround may not work in all cases. We do not have another reliable method to offer at this time.

When attempting to load a webpage you receive one of the following error messages:

• A Runtime Error has occurred. Do you wish to Debug?
• Internet Explorer Script Error. An error has occurred in the script on line 1. Do you wish to continue running scripts on this page?

To prevent this error from coming up, you will need to disable script and runtime errors. Perform the following to configure Internet Explorer to ignore these script and runtime errors:

1. Open Internet Explorer.
2. Click on Tools and select Options.
3. Click on the Advanced tab.Put a check in the box next to Disable script debuggin
   

5. Remove the check in the box next to Display a notification about every script error if this box is currently checked.

1. Click OK to confirm your changes.

This does not actually fix the problem, it merely stops the window telling you about it from coming up. In order to actually fix the problem, the code of the script needs to be modified so that it does not produce errors. This cannot usually be done by an end user, and instead needs to be done by the administrator for the webpage that the error is occurring on.

Note: Some users have reported that after trying the above steps, as well as the additional steps from Microsoft below, they discovered the problem was malware related. Before attempting the additional steps below, you should run a full virus scan.

If the window is still coming up, Microsoft has some additional steps you can try to resolve the problem
